DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Embodiments of the invention are described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. The various embodiments of the invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a multiline lidar according to one embodiment. The multiline lidar includes a laser emitting array 110, a laser receiving array 120, an echo sampling device 130, a control system 140, and an output device 150.

The laser emitting array 110 is configured to emit multi-beam laser. The laser emitted by the laser emitting array 110 is pulsed laser. The laser emitting array 110 includes a plurality of laser emitters arranged in an array.

The laser receiving array 120 is configured to receive multi-beam pulsed laser reflected by a target object. The laser receiving array 120 also includes a plurality of laser receivers arranged in an array. The laser receivers have the same number as that of the laser emitters. In alternative embodiments, the arrangement of the laser emitting array 110 and the laser receiving array 120 may be configured according to actual needs.

The echo sampling device 130 is coupled to the laser receiving array 120. The echo sampling device 130 is configured to sample the laser echo received by the laser receiving array 120 in a time division multiplexing manner, and a sampling data stream is generated and output. The sampling of the multiplexed laser echo is performed by the time division multiplexing manner, such that the sampling efficiency is increased, and the real-time ability of the measuring process is enhanced. The echo sampling device 130 has a sampling frequency of an order of the gigabit samples per second (GSPS), such that the obtained sampling data stream is a data stream of an order of GSPS (i.e., high speed sampling data stream). In the illustrated embodiment, the echo sampling device 130 is an analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) sampling device, and an obtained data stream is a high speed data stream of 600000 echo signal per second. The data stream is a data stream quantized by 8 bit ADC.

The control system 140 is coupled to the laser emitting array 110, the laser receiving array 120, and the echo sampling device 130, respectively. The control system 140 is configured to control operations of the laser emitting array 110, the laser receiving array 120, and the echo sampling device 130. In addition, the control system 140 is configured to determine measurement data according to the sampling data stream. Specifically, the control system 140 can be implemented via a field programmable gate array (FPGA). Referring to FIG. 2, the control system 140 includes a waveform screening system 142 and a time division multiplexing digital signal processing (DSP) array 144. The waveform screening system 142 is configured to screen an echo that satisfies a preset waveform condition from the sampling data stream. The preset waveform condition can be the parameter of the peak or phase of the waveform. Specifically, the waveform screening system 142 stores a preset waveform template therein. Therefore, the waveform screening system 142 matches the waveform in the sampling data stream with the preset waveform template, and determines whether the waveform in the sampling data stream satisfies the preset waveform condition according to the degree of matching. After extracting the data point sequence containing the waveform satisfying the preset waveform condition, the waveform screening system 142 sends the packed data to the time division multiplexed DSP array 144. The time division multiplexed DSP array 144 is constructed by FPGA logic resources and multipliers. The time division multiplexed DSP array 144 performs a series of multiplication and iterative operations on the screened data to obtain time interval information representing the distance information. The time division multiplexed DSP array 144 is further configured to convert the obtained time interval information into the distance information, and send the packed data combined with other ancillary information. The time interval information is converted to distance information using the formula as follows: D=T*Ca/2

where D represents distance, Ca represents the speed of light in the air, T represents time interval, which is an absolute value of the difference between the echo and the reference signal and the template correlation at which the maximum value is reached. By packing and sending the obtained distance information along with other auxiliary information such as point serial number, channel attenuation value, and test information, it is helpful to improve the stability and security of the data transmission process. In an alternative embodiment, the echo sampling device 130 can be integrated into the control system 140.

The output device 150 is configured to output the measurement data output by the control system 140. In the illustrated embodiment, the output device 150 is an output interface. In alternative embodiments, the output device 150 can be a display device that outputs the measurement data directly.

According to the aforementioned multiline lidar, the laser emitting array 110 can emit multi-beam laser, the laser receiving array 120 is configured to receive multiplexed laser echoes reflected by the target object. The echo sampling device 130 is configured to sample the multiplexed laser echo received by the laser receiving array 120 in the time division multiplexing manner and output the sampling data stream to the control system 140, such that the control system 140 can determine the measurement data and outputs it through the output device 150. According to the aforementioned multiline lidar, the sampling is performed via the time division multiplexing manner, and a real-time processing is performed by the control system 140, such that the real-time ability of the measuring process is enhanced. In the meantime, the control system 140 calculates and processes the data via the time division multiplexing DSP array, thus the real-time ability of the measuring process is further enhanced.

In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 2, the control system 140 further includes a receiving power evaluation system 145, an automatic power control system 147, and a laser emission control system 149, which are successively coupled. The receiving power evaluation system 145 is coupled to the waveform screening system 142 and is configured to calculate a power value of the echo based on the screening results of the waveform screening system 142. The automatic power control (AGC) system 147 is configured to calculate a power compensation value according to the obtained power value. The laser emission control system 149 is configured to adjust a transmission power according to the power compensation value to compensate the optical path attenuation, such that the echo energy obtained the next time can be within the expected power range, thus obtaining an echo signal with good signal-to-noise ratio, and is conducive to improve the accuracy of the measurement.
